You can overwrite the location with your hardcoded name:
Just type c:\myFolder.

This is the default location. The first proposal to the user: The user is
allowed to change this.

Most users would like the first option:
[ProgramFilesFolder][Manufacturer]\[ProductName]
This will install in:
C:\Program Files\RaedSoftware\Great Tool
